Description

Some perspectives on teaching the subject of nuclear and radiochemistry are presented in the form of a historical narrative. In addition, a program is briefly reviewed, which was developed approximately in 1985, to enhance learning in a specific course on the subject. This program involved developing illustrations, course notes, and video tutorials evaluating their effectiveness. After having used these aids extensively, their efficacy is commented on. The role of a nuclear science course in a nuclear engineering curriculum is also briefly discussed. (author) 4 refs
